Weiyoung didn"t know what to feel or how to even feel it. She stood up and was about leaving when she heard Sara"s pretty voice
"Wait!"
Weiyoung looked at her. Annoyed by this girl. Why was she so happy? It was obvious they weren"t rich from their outfits. Was she trying to show off that her dad had brought her here when her own father was in a business trip or attending to a mistress somewhere?
"What is it?" she asked in annoyance.
"You are alone right? Let"s play together" Sara said cheerfully.
And that was the beginning. The very beginning of it all. She should have firmly insisted she was not interested. Then they wouldn"t have been friends. No! She shouldn"t have gone to the park that very day. She wouldn"t have been so happy that she had found someone she was worth more than. She wouldn"t have been so happy to have a puppy following her about and even taking her advice to change schools to hers. From that moment, everything changed. She was still higher than Sara in everything, academically and otherwise. But Sara didn"t care. Like Weiyoung was insignificant to her. And that was why she didn"t feel bad when "that" happened to Sara. She had actually wanted to get rid of her anyway.
The next time she saw Sara after that, that dead expression of hers, one she had till this very day. The cheerfulness gone, the smile gone. The friendliness gone! Weiyoung knew then, that it was better having her as a friend than an enemy.
"Over my dead body" Mrs Liu screamed. "I will never go beg those filthy things. My daughter wouldn"t either "
Weiyoung had been lost in thought, she had no idea what ever had been said
"Cai Genji! have you gone nuts? do you want to ruin my family because you have no idea how difficult it is to get to this point?" Mr Liu was also enraged.
"What...what did you just call me?" Mrs Liu asked wide eyed. She couldn"t believe she just heard that name. And from her husband. She hated it! Hated that name and whatever came with it.
"Father, Mother, You both should calm down" Weiyoung tried to smoothen the situation but she was well aware that no matter what, it wouldn"t be.
"We have to go there this instant!" He declared. What was pride to him? He would rather go apologize to those peasants than to actually become a peasant himself. He knew Li Muchen wasn"t bluffing and could easily crush him if he meant it.
"I won"t go! I will never go there" Mrs Liu was still adamant. How was she supposed to go there? She took the large envelope from her husband to see what was inside.
Sounds of hysteric laughter could be heard in the whole room. She couldn"t believe it. She had just bought that apartment, but here she was, with the deed of owners.h.i.+p going to Jianjun. She was going to offer it to them and apologize? The restaurant"s was also there. They were playing a joke on her. A big joke!
"Fine! you can stay if you wish. But you are going to be busy signing our divorce papers" He threatened
Sara"s family had already been able to gather all of their things. This was exactly what Muchen had been trying to avoid that was why he gave the Liu"s an hour. He didn"t want the w.a.n.g"s to be stressed out, packing and unpacking.
"Dad, I have been saving this for a while now, let"s include it to get us a new place" Joreen said as she handed him a box.
Jianjun looked at her. He didn"t know how to react.
"Did I save the world in my past life to have two angels beside me?" He wondered.
Sara had just finished forcing hers on him, now Joreen was doing same. His eyes were glistening with tears. But he knew he couldn"t cry. He cannot cry.
"Jo, you know I can"t accept your money. This is yours" He pushed the box back to her.
"Jo, do not worry, we have enough already. You can keep it" Sara said from the side. Joreen shouldn"t be a part of all these mess they were facing.
Joreen"s mood changed. She became totally sad.
"You took Sara"s but why not mine? aren"t we a family?"
"Jo, it"s your m...."
"It"s still yours. From the money you"ve been giving to me. Besides, it was to get you a gift for father"s day so you can just accept it in advance" This time, she forced it on him. He could only accept it as streaks of tears ran down his cheeks..
"Come here" He said to his girls and pulled them into a hug. These girls, he would die for. These girls, he would kill for, And these girls, He would never allow anyone hurt them.
They gradually carried their bags outside to place on the truck they had hired. When they saw a car coming towards them, especially when they realised it was the Liu"s, they couldn"t help sighing.
The entire family had to come gloat over their misery?
The w.a.n.gs continued what they were doing. The owner of the truck was also helping them place their things inside sluggishly. Sara was angry at his att.i.tude. He was too sluggish for her liking. If not that the truck she had first hired suddenly cancelled on her. Why would she accept this one?
The Liu"s annoyance intensified. What was wrong with these people? They should at least stand in attention and bow to them when they got there but they had to keep up their pride?
Mr Liu cleared his throat and was the first to speak.
"Mr Jianjun w.a.n.g?" He asked.
